U pull ripoff

Not to say they had it coming, but I remember the first time they charged me to walk a yard

Not get a part, just an entry fee

I know I walked away with a pocket full of fuses that day

Probably wasn't right, but neither was charging a cover charge for a junkyard
But it's their property. They can choose to charge to walk it if they want to. You could have chosen to say no. I don't like those kinda business practices either, so don't think I'm on their side, I'm not. But if YOU want something else SOMEONE ELSE has, you have to play by their rules.
